Damascus, Syria (Tue, May 08) – Anti-government demonstrators were swift to
make parody of Syria's parliamentary elections Monday with a outbreak of
amateur, online videos sketching a vote they say aims to put a sparkly shine on
the strict rule of President Bashar al Assad and cover up its violent crackdown
on protesters.
Since March 20122, the start of anti-regime revolt , amateur videographers
have played an important role in revealing the other side of the story to the
world about the Middle East's most brutal police states, uploading daily
hundreds of videos of protests, destroyed homes, regime forces and the often
bloody bodies of those killed by them.
Beside the serious videos, there have been a lot of spoofs showing an often
dark humor about the ongoing political and human rights’ crisis in the country.
Watch one of such videos below:
